Cyber citizens discuss why they prefer to keep it this way

@MunaMenuga said:

"Most times, for safety reasons, it’s always best to NEVER let cassie [a casual] know where you live. What if he becomes obsessed or something?"

@NwaAdaIgbo1 responded with:

"I live with my parents. They can't come over."

@OOsasele wrote:

"Some girls have this notion that if stuff is supposed to go down, it can't happen in their house."

@Kinetic1One shared:

"An African man is raised with some dignity. We don’t go to ladies' houses like that."

@Chuks_oo tweeted:

"Imagine spending the night in your GF's house, then you wake up in the morning to find out that your car is missing. How are you going to explain that to your wife?"
